NEWSFLASH:
Newsman: Here's a Muppet News Flash! "Popcorn is now becoming a popular snack to eat at operas. It not only lets the viewer enjoy popcorn at an opera, but also helps the performer onstage to keep in time to the chewing of the viewer. In fact there was even an avalanche of popcorn the other night at the Metropolitan Opera House!"

Popcorn then comes down from the sky onto of the Newsman.

Tim: Gonzo, I'm surprised you still have that outfit on.

Gonzo: Well, somebody's gotta do it!

Tim: And it sure isn't me.

Gonzo: Listen, does this sound any better?

Tim: Sound any.....

Gonzo: Yeah! I'm trying to talk like Frank 'n' Furter.

Tim: Gonzo.....

Gonzo: -starts to sing- Well I'm just a sweet tra.....

Tim: No! No! Gonzo, it doesn't work that way!

Gonzo: Then how DOES it work?

Kermit: Don't you always?

Gonzo: Do what?

Kermit: Never mind.

Gonzo: Listen, I've changed now. I'm not interested in trying to be the Sweet Tra........

Kermit: No.

Gonzo: But to my point, I've now decided to become something else. -rushes off, but then rushes back on with a stunt suit on- Evel Knievel! Hahahahaha!

Phew! This was a doozy! I hope you enjoyed it, Piggy The Frog. And I hope the rest of you did, too! More outlines, coming soon!

I don't know if this was intentional, but I noticed a bit of foreshadowing. First, you have Tim interacting with a parrot. Of course, he goes on to play Long John Silver in MTI (with a lobster instead of a parrot, I know, but still). Then the P.T. Barnum sketch with the clowns (IT).

I was aware of the foreshadowing of MTI with the parrot. However I actually really wasn't aware of the clowns in the P.T. Barnum sketch foreshadowing "It" until you told me. Thanks.

NEWS FLASH:
Newsman: Here's a Muppet News Flash! "Witches have been popping up all over Even Eye County in Kansas, causing such mayhem as whipping up tornadoes, eating little children by luring them into candy houses, turning the governor into a frog, and offering poisonous apples to the citizens at the farmer's market. If anyone has any information about these witches, please call......"

Witch (disguised as an old hag): Excuse me, sir, but would you like an apple?

Newsman: Why certainly, old lady I've never seen before in my entire life. -eats apple and faints-

Witch: Ha ha. What a buffoon.

Click to expand...

The witch in that sketch should be Taminella Grinderfall, in my opinion.

Another Pig: -passing by- One of your jokes landing? -laughs and goes off-

Fozzie: Kermit........I wanna be a musician.

Kermit: You?

Fozzie: Yeah, I can play........then again I can.....then again.....Hold on, I'll be back, Kermit.

Kermit: Fozzie, where are you going?

Fozzie: To find my musical, artistic talent! -goes off-

Kermit: And now, ladies and gentlemen, come run away to the streets of New York; where times are tough and the streets are full of dangers everywhere. And here to conquer these dangers is our very own Miss Piggy and out very special guest star, Mr. Bruce Springsteen! YAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!

MUSICAL NUMBER: Born To Run, sung by Bruce serenading Miss Piggy while running away from oncoming dangers in New York City. Miss Piggy karate chops them, but then slows down after a while, saying "I can't catch up!"

BALCONY:

Statler: Huh. No wonder the pig couldn't catch up.

Waldorf: How come?

Statler: She wasn't born to run!

Both: Dohohohoho!

BACKSTAGE:

Bruce is carrying on the exhausted Miss Piggy in his arms.

Kermit: Bruce, is Piggy alright?

Bruce: Yeah, she'll be alright. She just wasn't used to all that running. She's not born to run like I am.

Kermit: But she's born to attack.

Bruce: You have a point there, Kermit. -goes off with Miss Piggy-

Fozzie: -comes on with a saxophone- Kermit! I found my musical talent!

Kermit: Fozzie, you can play saxophone?

Fozzie: Uhhh....of course! -plays saxophone badly-

Kermit: Wait a second. Fozzie, isn't that Zoot's saxophone?

Zoot then comes on, takes the saxophone from Fozzie, and then leaves.

Fozzie: Hey! Wait! Come back! You took my musical talent!

Enter Fozzie

Fozzie: Oh, it's hopeless.

Bruce: What's hopeless, Fozzie?

Fozzie: Finding my musical talent. I wanna be a great musician, like you, Mr. Springsteen.

Bruce: But, Fozzie, what about your talent of telling jokes?

Fozzie: Well.....if being a musician doesn't get me heckled by the two old guys every night.....

Bruce: Fozzie, Fozzie. Talent isn't about trying to make someone else happy. It's about doing what you love best. And what you love doing best is telling jokes, right?

Fozzie: Right.

Bruce: There you go. Now let me tell you something.

MUSICAL NUMBER: Thank You For The Music, sung by Bruce, Fozzie, and other Muppets that join later on.

Bruce: Hey, you mind if I bring in a friend of mine for the closing number?

Kermit: Oh sure, Bruce.

Bruce: -to the side- Hey, Big Man, come on in!

Fozzie: -comes on- Thank you again, music, for this evening!

Kermit: Fozzie!

Fozzie: What? I'm thanking the music.

Kermit: Anyways, before we go, let us say thank you to our guest, Mr. Clarence Clemmons, and our very special guest star, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Bruce Springsteen! YAAAAAAY!!!!

Bruce and Clarence both come on.

Bruce: Kermit, thank you so much for having us on here tonight.

Clarence: Yeah, man. It was a blast.
